Sharing a Cuppa with Papa- yes! It is so important to start your day with something warm!Lol!
Babychino loves biting our cups,when we are drinking our tea..the excitement on her face after a bite/ sip is priceless. When Babs was little,I let her little hand touch the warm cup exterior,so she knows it’s hot and shouldn’t be touched- she was an angel- she listened after that time!
Babychino- well she is the devil- she doesn’t care- she touches it again and grins!
Next most important ritual is playing with Dida,while mummy gets everything ready.Did I tell you,Babychino calls Babushka ‘Dida’- I have been told that Dida means grandmother in Bengali, but we don’t speak Bengali and it sounds So utterly cute when she calls out to her Dida,that,we have decided to not correct her!
She calls out to her Dida even in her sleep..and the moment,they wake up,our house is full of screams of Dida,Dida…:)
In case you are wondering what Babushka calls Babychino- Omg! It’s hilarious! She calls her- Sania,Tania,lavanya,Aaliyah,daisy,Radhika,princess,cheeky girl…I told you it’s hilarious! Her favorite are Sania and Tania… And we are not allowed to call her that!And don’t ask me- why these names- for I don’t have a clue:)

Drool-Alert!

Last night I went to bed with a purpose- the purpose was to plan out our weekly menu and my exercise schedule- and I fell asleep, even before writing the day/ date!
I haven’t gone for a walk in a long time- because it’s cold and when I come home,after dropping Babushka, I just end up doing other stuff. One of the girls on my fitness support group,suggested writing a schedule and putting in the exercise as a non- negotiable appointment- that made sense.
It didn’t work ..coz I fell asleep.And really need to plan menus- because early nights make me lazy n I don’t feel like cooking.Heading out to buy the slow-cooker now.What?I have more time during the day,to put the meal together,than in the evening! My reasoning to SD about why Iwantneed a slow- cooker to save money- if I have the slow cooker,we won’t need to get takeaway:) lol yeah we’ll see:) -
Babushka was unwell, so i kept her home today. Babychino was sick too..It was one long day here- they both slept at different times. The first time,Babychino took a nap,Babs woke her up..the next time,they both cuddled up and slept together for half an hour,I finished my lunch and Babychino woke up:)One thing after the other..everything took double time today:)
This Saturday when I came back from work,SD had cleaned the living room up,vacuumed the floor,etc..when I said wow,looks nice,he rubbed it in my face,that he managed to clean,feed the girls,have a shower..all when the girls were awake, how could I not. I was too tired then, and as always my brain thinks of a response only after, the talk is done and dusted. And then I think about it over and over again..that’s what happened this time as well..and then I realized,that- he had done everything,except two important things- cooking and eating! He had his shower and finished praying when Babychino slept.I use that time to have a shower/ cook something and try to eat it…now,I don’t feel inefficient anymore..:)
Like Babushka says,I am trying my best and really working hard!:)
